Pixelmator Team Releases Pixelmator 1.4 Sprinkle

Version 1.4 Features New Painting Engine, Support for Adobe Photoshop Brushes, Clouds Filter, Document Presets, and More

The Pixelmator Team released Pixelmator 1.4 today, the fourth major update to the revolutionary GPU-powered image editing tool that provides everything needed to create, edit, and enhance still images. Available as a free software update, Pixelmator 1.4, codenamed Sprinkle, features a new painting engine, Adobe Photoshop brushes support, a clouds filter, document presets, and more.

“By leveraging the power of Mac OS X, Pixelmator brings image editing to life,” said Saulius Dailide of the Pixelmator Team. “With Pixelmator 1.4 features, the application is a superior image editor and an excellent painting tool that is as fun as it is powerful.”

Yes, I agree with you, but some people are just basically saying “until you add this, your program is not worth switching to”. It’s like they wait for just that one feature to buy Pixelmator or to switch.

I’m sure they would like the feature. I would like it. And it’s coming in 1.5 (so they say at Ars). The problem is the way they are “demanding” it. It’s like they are threatening the devs. Add this or else I’m still on Adobe.

I hope you understand my point. It’s okay to leave feedback, but not the way they are doing it.

@ Pixelmator team
It’s very practical to have a link to the release notes. Maybe you can update the article to have it. As for any confused user on where to see them, here you go: http://www.pixelmator.com/support/updates/

I do! and so do many people I know. This update is GIGANTIC for me. The save for web stuff everyone is asking for is nice for me, but nothing required. This update means I can and will replace photoshop for 95% of what i do, if not more.

Nothing but praise for the Pixelmator team. I’ve been using it for a few hours now, and my tablet couldn’t be happier!

Shapes feature, using bezier curves, lines, and a way to define rounds & chamfers on corners would also be a nice addition. Ideally, I’d like to be using something between illustrator and photoshop but better (numerical control?) over shape features. I realize many folks here are not product designers, but here is an opportunity to create this missing link. Oh, and add mechanical dimensioning tools for about $200 would complete my design studio. Thanks!

The brushes feature is awesome. But I still would like a folder option for the layers palette. Line height for fonts would be cool. A rgb color add on is almost necessary and you should include it instead of me finding one on the internet. I still need photoshop, but the speed of the app (and the fact that it is one bundle unlike Adobe) is great. Keep the versions rolling.

The brushes do indeed rock and the update is sick, to borrow a phrase and appear down with the kids. Clouds are cool, hadn’t noticed they weren’t there but good to see them join the crowd (still missing wave though 🙁 )

There’s loads of little things that I’d love to see join the software and, like some others, I’m not going to delete any competing apps just yet, but on version update 4 I’m HUGELY impressed with where Pixelmator is going and now probably use it 50% next to the other photothing. I do big it up much more though when I chat to people about digital art (sadly I teach in a college that’s wedded to the other software but all of my students are in no doubt as to where my loyalties are headed) and managed to find a half hour to blog about it here also: http://kercal.wibsite.com/2009/02/18/pixelmator-14/.

Nice one Team Pixelmator. As ever looking forward to the next thing (ah we are so impatient on the nets are we not?) but loving where we’re at at the mo’. Keep it up and yeah, another vote for a link to the version update history thing as an option when you open the software and get the dialog box doo dah.

There is a limit to the amount of brushes you can import. There is no scroll feature nor re size on the brush palette which make it impossible to view the entire brush collection. as you import, the palette get longer and longer eventually hiding off your entire monitor.

Hmm I have tried this application, basically for the price and the features I can say is really awesome application. I just think that layer effect and save-for-web is really important, if this can add in asap. It just fantasic I can describe.
